st: AutoIt and Vim Scripts

I made some modifications to the script that runs do-files from Vim. I
thought they may be of interest to some of you. Putting this in your
_gvimrc file will map F8 to run the whole file and F9 to run the
selected part of the do-file using only F. Huebler's Script 1, which
you can download from
http://mysite.verizon.net/huebler/2005/20050310_Stata_editor.html#script1
You may need Vim 7.0 to take advantage of the F9 mapping. This fixes
the bug which left an "extra" copy of the do-file after using F8, and
it also allows you to run only a part of the file (regardless of if
the text s selected in visual mode or the mouse way). As always, you
may need to change the paths to suit your PC.
Here's the code:
" Define Scripts and Map Them
fun! RunIt()
wa
!start "C:\Program Files\Scripts\rundo.exe" "%:p"
endfun
:map <F8> :<C-U>call RunIt() <ENTER>
:imap <F8> <Esc>:<C-U>call RunIt() <ENTER>
fun! RunDoLines()
let selectedLines = getbufline('%', line("'<"), line("'>"))
if col("'>") < strlen(getline(line("'>")))
let selectedLines[-1] = strpart(selectedLines[-1], 0, col("'>"))
endif
if col("'<") != 1
let selectedLines[0] = strpart(selectedLines[0], col("'<")-1)
endif
let temp = tempname() . ".do"
call writefile(selectedLines, temp)
exec "!start C:\\Program Files\\Scripts\\rundo.exe " . temp
" Delete the temp file after Vim closes
au VimLeave * exe "!del -y" temp
endfun
:map <F9> :<C-U>call RunDoLines() <Enter>
:imap <F9> <Esc>:<C-U>call RunDoLines() <Enter>
